Reloading Still Image Files
You can refresh all occurrences of imported still graphics, including EPS files, without
having to close and reopen the Avid FX effect setting. The application refreshes the effect to
display the newly edited graphic.
To re-create an effect using the updated image, you can reload it instead of importing it for
each instance. Make sure that you use the same filename.
When you reload layered EPS or PSD files, Avid FX attempts to recreate the layers. It is
important that you keep the same number of layers in the updated file as the original to avoid
duplication of the missing layers.
To reload media files:
1. Copy the EPS or still image file in the same directory as the original file and overwrite
it. The file must use the exact same name as the original file.
If you are not sure where the file was originally located, open the Media Files window to
locate your media.
2. From the File menu, select Reload Files.
All external media files in your project are updated.
Loading Media Files
You can load media files from the Controls window. The new file replaces the selected
media file on the timeline.
To load a media file:
1. Select the face track of the media file to open its media tab. For audio files, select the
audio track.
2. In the Controls window, click the Load File button.
